NES.app v0.46 - Nes Emulator for iPhone

[Kojote]

via pdroms:

NES.app uses the popular InfoNES emulation core to mimic the 6502 processor in a Nintendo Entertainment System, allowing you to play ROM dumps of games designed for the NES console. ROM dumps are files containing the dumped instruction code from a physical cartridge. In many cases, you are legally entitled to posess a ROM dump of any game that you presently own. ROM images for NES are widely available online, or with the appropriate hardware, you can dump them yourself directly from the cartridge.

Author notes: NES.app is based on the same code as iPhoneNES, but because they couldn't keep up with all our changes, we thought it best to maintain our own site and svn repository.



Changes since v0.44:

• [nervegas] Write preferences to /var/root/Library/Preferences
• [nervegas] Corrected Save-State issues with many (many) games
• [nervegas] Corrected more save-state issues

isnt this emulator quite hard to use with the touchscreen ? because every touchscreen ive seen can only receive one input at once, so how do you run and jump on mario?

...I've just tried it and although you can press multiple buttons at the same time (ie: right/run/jump) the touch screen controls still suck! ...The author admits this too.

Might be good for simple nes games and perhaps a different button layout would help.
